Four people were injured Monday afternoon, following a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 62 near State Route 661 in Licking County…

According to the Licking County Sheriff’s Office, at around 3:30, a red Subaru, driven by 18-year-old Ethan McNabb of Johnstown, was traveling eastbound toward Utica. Witnesses report that he drifted left of center, without braking into on-coming traffic. A blue Infinity, driven by Shaun Spence of Johnstown, was westbound on U.S. 62 – a 9-year-old and a 6-year-old were in the vehicle with him. The red Subaru struck the front right of the Infinity, causing the Subaru to roll over. The Infinity spun until it came to a stop.

All 4 people were injured in the crash, and reports from the Sheriff’s Office indicate that one of the juveniles is in serious condition. McNabb was taken to Grant Hospital in Columbus, and the two juveniles were taken to Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Spence was transported to an unknown hospital for treatment.

The Sheriff’s Office said alcohol, drugs, nor excessive speed are considered to be factors in the crash, which remains under investigation.
